ANRAN: 5MP PoE Security Camera Review

ANRAN 5MP PoE Security Camera Review

This past week your friend Marius has been testing a new camera model from ANRAN. It’s actually a full kit and, the best thing is, it’s ready-to-use and a great, cost-effective solution for video surveillance at a discounted price of $319.99 or 320 EUR. The model I’ve been testing is a 4 PoE 5MP camera that comes with all the modern technologies available for a product of its kind. This ANRAN model uses the most recent H.265 technology for video efficiency coding, has an IP66 waterproof rating, HD night vision, ONVIF, mobile apps, two-way audio, noise detection and motion detection (Human detection, Animal detection, Vehicle detection, Package intelligent detection). Even more, the camera comes with its own ANRAN NVR and one 2TB HDD. The camera does not need an additional power supply – just connect it to the POE NVR through the four 18 meters RJ45 network cables included in the kit, and it’s ready to use.

Impressive Low Energy Consumption

One of the things that impressed me the most about this ANRAN model is the low power consumption per camera. One ANRAN camera uses only 4.7 watts in night mode with the IR on.

Without the IR, energy consumption drops from 4.7W to only 1.7W per camera.
